Helmet Fair and Bike Rodeo

To kick-off Manhattan’s Bike Month in May, the City of Manhattan and local organizations have teamed up to bring you the city’s first Helmet Fair and Bike Rodeo. This event will be held in the Anthony Middle School parking lot on Saturday, April 27th from 9-11 am. Children 15 and younger with an adult will receive a free helmet (while supplies last) and custom fitting. Children can also bring their own helmet to receive a custom fitting. In addition to free helmets and fittings, there will also be bike inspections, a bike rodeo, and safety stations where children and parents can learn about the rules of the road, booster seat and car safety, and bike and water safety. If a child visits all of the safety stations, they will receive a prize! Upon registration, each child will receive a “passport.” They will need to have this signed at each station that they visit. Once their “passport” is completed, they will return back to the registration table and receive a prize.
